Monte Cristo Golf & Country Club
About
Until the new Los Lagos club opened recently, Monte Cristo, previously known as Palacio, was the only 18-hole course in Edinburg. The name of the game here is dealing with the wind, which seems to always blow from the Gulf and makes the course much more difficult.
Getting there : Exit Monte Cristo off 281 south, then turn left and drive 2.5 miles to the course.

Nice corse
It is a nice corse all the greens look good and it is well kept.
5 somes
On Saturday you don’t let 5 somes play that’s for the weekdays. Had a five some two groups of head of me taking 10-15 mins on the tee box hitting multiple balls and also wouldn’t tee off until the group in front of them were off the greens on par 4’ and 5’s. It was ridiculous and poor place of play. They had at least 6 groups of 5somes out there today what are they thinking besides making sure I won’t ever come back.
Great Condition and value
Monte Cristo Golf and Country Club offers a high quality course that is both scenic and well maintained. Course is challenging yet fun. Fairways and greens are mowed twice a day so it’s in good to great condition. Great value for members and visitors
Great day
The entire staff was amazing and very friendly. You don't see such amazing customer service very often in this area.
Was not that busy so pace of play was amazing. Greens were in good condition. Totally recommend.
Great Course
Loved the Course
Met some of the Staff which were all friendly
Pro shop charged me 54 dollars for a few bottles of Gatorade so watch your charge before paying, but has a great feel and can’t wait to go back
Enjoyed the round and the course, will be playing again and again for sure
Golf cart
Driving range was looking pretty rough, didn’t look taken care of. The course itself wasn’t terrible, but the carts need to be inspected better before put in use or fixed in the long run. The straps that hold your clubs in did not tightened at all when I put my clubs on the cart. I must have not paid attention well enough to notice it. After I tee’d off on hole 1 I went to take off & my clubs fell straight on the concrete from the strap not holding in the latch whatsoever. Scratched up multiple of my clubs & was very upsetting. Pay attention to this so it doesn’t happen to you.
Great Course
Overall great course. Lots of straights. Clean greens. Can't really complain. Wish they had food options during the week. Other than that I loved it.

Having played the .course a number of times of late, I have to say the course layout while quirky, I e. Back nine of 4 par 3's and 3 par 5's, is actually a enjoyable test. The course is pretty solid in it's maintenance; fairways are green and well maintained. Also, glad to see the quality of the greens improving. So if you are seeking a fun course to play that is fairly open give MC a whirl. If you are like me, you'll likely find the place a pleasant test. My biggest gripe: the practice range is in tatters and does the course no favors stuck between holes 9 and 18.
